The Nigeria International Debt Fund, managed by Afrinvest Asset Management Limited, has delivered a Year-to-Date (YTD) return of 6.06% so far in 2026, which shows meaningful growth over the year even as the most recent week tells a more cautious story. The fund's Net Asset Value (NAV) currently stands at ₦1.78B, placing it at #141 of 222 across all Nigerian mutual funds and #19 of 42 within the Fixed Income and Bond Funds category. That mid-table position suggests the fund is neither a standout leader nor a laggard among its peers, sitting comfortably in the middle of the pack.
Looking at the recent weekly trend, the fund posted positive Week-to-Date (WTD) yields for four consecutive weeks, ranging from 0.10% to 0.27% between early and late June 2026, before dipping to -0.02% in the most recent week ending 3 July 2026. That small negative figure means the fund's value slipped very slightly in that single week, a notable contrast to the category median WTD yield of 0.16% recorded across Fixed Income and Bond Funds peers. The fund also has a relatively small investor base of just 96 unitholders, meaning a limited number of people currently hold a stake in it. The NAV itself has grown steadily from ₦1.76B in early June to ₦1.78B now, so the broader upward direction remains intact despite the latest weekly dip.
Key insight: Despite a strong year-to-date gain of 6.06%, the fund's most recent weekly return of -0.02% falls noticeably below the peer median of 0.16%, making the next few weeks important to watch for signs of whether this is a brief pause or a shift in momentum.
